My first thought, before I read your own thoughts, was you didn't drop your level enough. Other than that, very nice. And it worked. Nothing is "text book" in a real fight!

Also, one other thing. It's not wrong to put your head to the outside, but you lcan eave yourself open to a guillotine or headlock that way. Some advocate keeping your head in the middle, basically put your forhead into his abs. But that's more of a personal preference thing.

This is pretty much my first "live" double. Everything else has been a drill or on a crash mat.

I was worried about the guillotine but It seems like I transitioned fast enough to avoid it. Also I hate the idea of dropping to my knee whether on t3h str33ts or not it seems like a bad idea. Every time I've tried it my shot is much slower.
